Let $\mathcal G$ be a Hilbert space and $\mathfrak B(\mathcal G)$ the algebra of bounded operators, $\mathcal H=L_2([0,\infty);\mathcal G)$. An operator-valued function $Q\in L_{\infty,\rm loc}\left([0,\infty);\mathfrak B(\mathcal…

We discuss questions by Mostow \cite{Mo1}, Bers \cite{B} and Krushkal \cite{Kr1, Kr2} about uniqueness of a conformal or spherical CR structure on the sphere at infinity $\partial H_\mathbb{F}^n$ of symmetric rank one space $H_\mathbb{F}^n$…

Let F denote the homotopy fiber of a map f:K-->L of 2-reduced simplicial sets. Using as input data the strongly homotopy coalgebra structure of the chain complexes of K and L, we construct a small, explicit chain algebra, the homology of…

We study 1/2-BPS Wilson loop operators in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on $d$-dimensional spheres. Their vacuum expectation values can be computed at large $N$ through supersymmetric localisation. The holographic duals are…

Let $E(\mathscr{A})$ denote the shift-invariant space associated with a countable family $\mathscr{A}$ of functions in $L^{2}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ with mutually orthogonal generators, where $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ denotes the Heisenberg group. The…

A symmetry $SU(2,2)$ group in terms of ladder operators is presented for the Jacobi polynomials, $J_{n}^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)$, and the Wigner $d_j$-matrices where the spins $j=n+(\alpha+\beta)/2$ integer and half-integer are considered…

Using {\it weighted traces} which are linear functionals of the type $$A\to tr^Q(A):=(tr(A Q^{-z})-z^{-1} tr(A Q^{-z}))_{z=0}$$ defined on the whole algebra of (classical) pseudo-differential operators (P.D.O.s) and where $Q$ is some…

We introduce $*$-structures on braided groups and braided matrices. Using this, we show that the quantum double $D(U_q(su_2))$ can be viewed as the quantum algebra of observables of a quantum particle moving on a hyperboloid in q-Minkowski…

We study the skew-symmetric prolongation of a Lie subalgebra $\g \subseteq \mathfrak{so}(n)$, in other words the intersection $\Lambda^3 \cap (\Lambda^1 \otimes \g)$.We compute this space in full generality. Applications include uniqueness…

Let G be a noncompact real semisimple Lie group. The regular coadjoint orbits of G can be partitioned into a finite set of types. We show that on each regular orbit, the Iwasawa decomposition induces a left-invariant foliation which is…

Identifying the Bolch sphere with the Riemann sphere(the extended complex plane), we obtain relations between single qubit unitary operations and M\"{o}bius transformations on the extended complex plane.

We build on previous studies of the Higgs and Coulomb branches of SUSY quiver theories having 8 supercharges, including $3d~{\cal N}=4$, and Classical gauge groups. The vacuum moduli spaces of many such theories can be parameterised by…

If a finite group $G$ acts on a rational homology manifold, then the orbit space is well-known to be a rational homology manifold again. We consider here actions on spaces that may be much more singular. If the $G$-space is a Witt…

Given a C*-algebra A with a left action of a locally compact quantum group G on it and a unitary 2-cocycle Omega on \hat G, we define a deformation A_Omega of A. The construction behaves well under certain additional technical assumptions…

The commutative trigonometric shuffle algebra ${\mathrm A}$ is a space of symmetric rational functions satisfying certain wheel conditions. We describe a ring isomorphism between ${\mathrm A}$ and the center of the Hecke algebra using a…

We introduce new families of cylindric symmetric functions as subcoalgebras in the ring of symmetric functions $\Lambda$ (viewed as a Hopf algebra) which have non-negative structure constants. Combinatorially these cylindric symmetric…

To derive loop quantum cosmology from loop quantum gravity, I apply the model given in \cite{lin1} to a system with coupled gravitational and matter fields. The matter sector consists of a scalar field $phi$ serving as a cosmological clock,…

This work consist of two interrelated parts. First, we derive massive gauge-invariant generalizations of geometric actions on coadjoint orbits of arbitrary (infinite-dimensional) groups $G$ with central extensions, with gauge group $H$…

We study the monodromy of meromorphic cyclic $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{C})$-opers on the Riemann sphere with a single pole. We prove that the monodromy map, sending such an oper to its Stokes data, is an immersion in the case where the order…

We use the formal Lie algebraic structure in the ``space'' of hamiltonians provided by equal time commutators to define a Kirillov-Konstant symplectic structure in the coadjoint orbits of the associated formal group. The dual is defined via…
